Stop tooth decay and keep your smile shining bright
Cavities are a common dental problem among children and adults. However, if left untreated, cavities can become larger and lead to more serious dental issues, such as tooth loss or an infection in the tooth's pulp. Fortunately, an easy solution for recovering your oral health is dental fillings.
Dental fillings are a common and effective treatment for repairing teeth damaged by decay. They’re used to fill in the cavity created by the decay and restore the tooth to its normal function and shape. Dental fillings are a quick and easy procedure that can help to prevent further tooth decay and restore the health of your smile.
Getting a dental filling with us
Every appointment at Burnaby Dental Centre begins with discussing your specific oral health and smile goals. We want to understand what you want to achieve and any oral health concerns or problems you’re dealing with.
Your dentist will perform a complete oral exam, which may include x-rays, and discuss whether dental fillings are a good option for you. We’ll discuss the fillings treatment plan and how it will work with your budget and schedule.
In a dental filling appointment, we will:
-
Numb the area to make you more at ease
-
Carefully remove decayed areas of the tooth
-
Place a composite filling into the affected area
-
Polish the surface of your filling for a flawless finish!
